they_o with_o other_o they_o worship_v and_o confess_v he_o much_o like_o they_o of_o who_o our_o saviour_n say_v to_o the_o woman_n of_o samaria_n joh._n 4.22_o you_o worship_v that_o which_o you_o

these_o of_o all_o reprobate_n go_v far_a in_o the_o profession_n of_o the_o gospel_n so_o far_o they_o go_v as_o that_o it_o be_v impossible_a for_o man_n to_o discern_v between_o they_o and_o

that_o a_o man_n sanctify_v with_o the_o blood_n of_o the_o testament_n may_v account_v that_o blood_n unholy_a and_o profane_a may_v trample_v under_o foot_n the_o son_n of_o god_n and_o may_v
